Oh/ I admit It, there was a time when you
could send cold shivers down my back . . ;
a few times when I literally didn't eat!
But you can't scare me now, wolfy! And
here's why , . .
Ever since I got my war job, I've been
buying War Bonds—and holding them.
Furthermore, as soon as my husband went
overseas, I started putting his allotment
into War Bonds, too! He doesn't know it
yet, but he's not going to be afraid of you,
either!
Oh sure, the gals make fun of me at times.
Call me a tightwad when I won't loosen up
for expensive clothes, or trinkets, or parties.
But I don't care.
I like that "I've-got-money-back-of-me"
feeling!
So run along, wolfy, and sniff at somebody else's door, 'cause we've got one of the
very best nest eggs a famUy can haveWar Bonds.

U. S. Employees With Status
Deserve q Deferred Pr^refence
A
VERY serious problem exivsts in the Federal civil
service in the loss of jobs by employees with classified competitive status. Both the Congressional blunder
in reducing the TJ. S. Civil Service Commission's f u n d s
when the commission's tasks are increasing, and the legal
necessity of giving jobs to veterans who are former U. S.
employees, without regard to seniority, are costing Federal workers their jobs, which were once considered
secure.
There is need of a tertiary preference. The Federal
law establishes primary preference to disabled veterans,
secondary preference to non-disabled veterans, but nonveteran employees with status have no preference over
other non-veterans. They should have. The Commission
has the power to accomplish this by regulation, or President Ti'uman could issue an executive order.
It is quite likely that regulations will be drawn up so
that persons wdth civil service status, but without veteran
preference, who are being forced out of the Government
service by returning veterans, will have opportunity to be
selected from reemployment lists. It also seems probable that these reemployment lists will last a considerable
length of time, to give the greatest opportunity to loyal,
efficient and experienced workers.
It also appears equitable that regulations should be
prescribed which will curb some of the former peacetime
prerogatives of the appointing officer. Formerly an appointing officer could till any position by four different
means if the chose: from an open-competitive register
(which would include reemployment lists if maintained
by the Civil Service Commission); by transfer; by reinstatement; or by internal promotion. Undoubtedly, in the
interest of protecting displaced career employees to the
fullest extent, no appointing officer should be permitted
to fill vacancies through reinstatement or transfer so long
as there are qualified status persons available and willing
io accept appointment.

DOCTORS AND DENTISTS
ASK

s t a t i n g that their treatment by
the LaGuardla administration set
a precedent which threatens the
whole structure of civil service, a
group of Health Department physlans and dentists are appealing
to Mayor O'Dwyer to put them
back on a per-annum basis in the
1946-7 Budget.
The Chairman of the group,
Dr. Maurice Wollin, recalled that
until July, 1940, the doctors and
dentists were employed on a regular per annum basLs, earning between $1,800 and $2 400 a year.
Then, although they had taken
written and oral civil service ex-
aminations and had been appointed from competitive eligible
lists, they were changed to a persession fee basis. This cut their
earnings down to between $1,000
and $1,200 a year. This, Dr.
Wollin added, affected some 300
doctors and 60 or 70 dentists. In
addition, they also lost sick leave
and vacation time and a substantial portion of their pension
rights.
Many Now Over 50
At present many of the doctors
and dentists in this group are
over 50 years old and face retirement on a very small annuity, he

from 18 to 30 years' service with
the City.
Even if it were necessary, for
financial reasons, to cut down the
amount paid to doctors and dentists, Dr. Wollin says, new ent r a n t s only should have been put
on a per-session basis. Those already in the civil service posts
should have retained their rights,
he insisted.

civil service employees are invited

For the past 9 months, the Aptitude Testing Laboratories of
Reesen Company, 130 West 42nd
Street, NYC, have devoted almost
75 per cent of their facilities to
help solve and guide the vocational problems of veterans who
are seeking Individual attention.
The majority of servicemen tested
have no idea of a field of work to
enter or study but are desirous of
determining the field they are
best suited by nature to do.
Through their army experiences,
they are better equipp>ed now t h a n
ever before to succeed in a field,
once they have marde a choice of
goal. After a complete battery of
tests are given, the Aptitude Testing Laboratories discern the fields
In which a person will use the
greatest number of their aptitudes.
From these fields, the testee Is

Workers of America (CIO) wants
the Workmen's Compensation Law
amended to cover all NYC employees.
President James V. King stated
that Assemblymen Bernard Austin
and Fred G. Moritt introduced a
measure extending the coverage.
Mr. King claimed that there are
thousands of NYC employees not
presently protected- by the law.
Unlike employers in private industry, the city is not compelled
to cover its employees, unless they
are engaged in so-called hazardous occupations, Mr. King stated.
Every year hundreds of employees
suffer a-cscidents and disabilities on
the job which would normally be
covered by workmen's compensation in private Industry, he said.
He announced that efforts would
be made to have the NYC Council
adopt the necessai-y resolutions
under the home rule provisions of
the State constitution.

an application to call any day from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. for a free
medical examination by our physicians in order to determine
whether he meets the medical requirements or whether he suffers
from some minor defects that may he easily remedied.

for three months' training including lectures and
physical classes. This fee may be paid in installments.
• VETERANS—We are approved by both the New York State
Department of Education and the Veterans Administration and
our training is therefore available under the provisions of the
Bill, However, we discourage any veteran (particularly tho^)e
who are entitled to two, three or four years of education) to
use these rights for a sliort inexpensive course such as Patrolman. The regulations specify that having concluded one
course, no matter how short, the veteran is not entitled to any
future educational benefis.

Don't be imposed upon!
11% no longer patriotic to carry
home your bundles. It's just
plain silly! All restrictions on
Department
Store
Deliveries
were lifted last November Ist.
Naturally the Stores won't tell
you about it—since they charge
you for delivery service, and
pocket the difference when you
don't get it. The mark-up for
delivery is the same now as it
was before the war . . . but the
^ervice isn't.
In December, 1941, exactly 3,325
men were employed to make deliveries for 375 stored throughout
the city. This included Christmas help. In December, 1945,
only 1,900 men were working—
including Christmas help. Deliveries were, made and are still
being made by half the number
of men it takes to do the job
as it wab done before the war.
There is no manpower shortage.
There are 800 experienced men
waiting for these jobs. Yet the
department stores still make you
carry your own packages—and
make you pay for the delivery
service you don't get!
Madam, we repeat: the war is
over. Don't be imposed upon!
Get what you pay for. Demand
pre-war delivery sorvice. You
deserve it!

t h a t real personnel directors were
n o t mere a p p o i n t m e n t clerks or
liaison officers, b u t persons versed
in the i n t e r n a l m a n a g e m e n t of
civil service.
He f o u n d t h e close effect of the
b u d g e t a r y officers upon the work
of the NYC Civil Service Commissioners n o t a h e a l t h y one in NYC,
a n d felt t h a t t h e personnel m a t ters should be solely u n d e r the
practical jurisdiction of t h e C o m mission.
B u d g e t a r y i n t e r f e r e n c e causes
poor conditions, he observed, because p e n n y - p i n c h i n g .stifled real
consideration of the personnel
needs of t h e city. H e t h o u g h t
t h a t the NYC Commission does

much greater monetary inducem e n t s m u s t be made, to a t t r a c t
t h e highest possible type of men

it will be a good i n v e s t m e n t for
t h e city."
H e said t h a t personnel was l.y
f a r t h e biggest cost item in t h e
NYC budget, but t h a t you'd h a r d ly t h i n k so, when you noted the
relatively small a m o u n t of m o n e y
a p p r o p r i a t e d for t h e Commission's
work.

H e favored a well-devised t r a i n ing p r o g r a m a n d said t h a t it was
p a r t i c u l a r l y necessary for
the
benefit of r e t u r n i n g veterans, who
h a v e been away f r o m the city, or
f r o m their city jobs, for long
periods, because of military du^y.
M o r e co-operation is needed
bstween the city d e p a r t m e n t s a n d
t h e Commission, a n d all aloofnew

H e agreed, u p to a point, witli
c o m m e n t by Mr. S a y r e about l a . k
of co-ordination in t h e m a n a g e m e n t of the city, d u e to diffused
and
scattered
functions.
Mr.
Sayre wanted t h e Mayor's office
to be an overall m a n a g e . r i t n t
